It's Sunday and a rare occasion of it not raining where I am so I am away for most of the day (I also really should make Sunday mostly a day off so I don't burn-out). So, what have you been playing this week?

I am still hooked on Stellaris myself and my time played is reaching silly levels already. On my second play through now as my first ended in my destruction.

I declared war on someone who was being a nuisance, but it turned out their fleet was far bigger than mine. We decided to call a truce, but then my closest neighbour decided I was too aggressive so they declared war on me and made short work of my tiny ships.

Anyone else already excited for expansions to it? I sure am. I would like to see more random events and more neutral aliens floating around to discover.

After last night I am keen to play some more OpenRA, as the tournament we did was great fun. Open source game engines always surprise me and it has been years since I tried it. Everything went smoothly and I lost of course.

I will leave you with a bit of wisdom from Linux & Mac game porter Ethan Lee:

If you're on Linux/OSX and a program seems buggy, run it through Valgrind. Be reminded that you allowed that program to run on your computer

I've been finding my way through the initial stages of Might and Magic IV & V World of Xeen, but have probably spent more time trying to get it to run on DosBox on my phone than playing the damned thing. Hoping to get it working to keep me entertained on a long flight.

Beating people in OpenRA :)

Nothing. I've been working long hours and haven't had time (or energy) to play any games. I'll continue playing The Detail later today.

Quake in cardboard VR: www.quakevr.com

Also got "Freaking Meatbags" dirt cheap on steam, and it is a pretty cool pixel tower-defense, RTS, gene-splicing kind of game that runs great on Linux.

Convoy is also fun, but didn't give me a long term motivation to play.

Battlestation Harbinger is cool if you are looking for a mobile game.

At the beginning of the week EU4 was my main game, since I was finishing a game with Sweden and after it just Stellaris and I really hope that it gets more ways of winning the game.

Tomb Raider and Dota2 - have enjoyed both a lot!

I'm playing Dust: A Elysian Tail.

Not sure I will finish it, the beginning is interesting but it gets repetitive very quickly.
